Thomas W. Bryant Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Lakeland, Florida that is currently home to Lakeland High School athletics and the Lakeland Tropics soccer team of USL League Two.[1] It is named for Thomas W. Bryant, a Lakeland native lawyer, legislator, and donor to the University of Florida.[2] Bryant Stadium is just to the north of Henley Field.

In August 2017, Polk County Public Schools purchased Bryant Stadium from the City of Lakeland at a cost of $1.2 million.[3]
